2 Ambulatory Aids Canes Provides wide BOS to improve balance, provided limited stability, use to relieve pain and antalgic gait. Measurements: 20*-30* of elbow flexion Types Standard Quad Walk Cane (hemi walker)]

3 Ambulatory Aids Crutches
Use to increase BOS, provide MOD degree of stability, and relieve weight bearing on LE. Measurements: 20*-30* elbow flex, 2-3 finger clearance between axillary pad and axilla, tips 6 inches in front and 2 inches lateral. Types: Axillary Forearm Crutches(Lofstrand)

4 Ambulatory Aids Walkers
Provides the greatest amount of lateral and anterior stability, can reduce weight bearing on (B) LE. Measurements: 20*-30* of elbow flexion Types: Rigid Rolling Reciprocal Hemi Walker
